Happy birthday, Michael Cudlitz! The actor best known for playing the role of Abraham in AMC's The Walking Dead is celebrating his 52nd birthday today.

Cudlitz rose to fame with roles on Southland, Band of Brothers, and a part in Ana Lucia's backstory on LOST.

However, around here we know him best for his portrayal of Abraham Ford on AMC's The Walking Dead.

When he is not busy filming, he regularly attends comic conventions and interacts with as many fans as possible.

Cudlitz got his first experience with acting in the 1989 film, Crystal Ball.

Although his character Abraham Ford didn't make it past the season 7 premiere of The Walking Dead thanks to Negan, he will be remembered in the hearts of many fans.
